Green & Co. s report on cotton futures says:
| Considerable animation and more or less
| irregularity were shown on cotton contracts to-
day. During greater portion of the day the
tendency was rather upward and 506 points
| advance took place. unfavorable crop accounts
| leading to pretty good covering along the entire
line. There was, however, little new demand,
| with an absence Of European orders, and after
| local shorts were through, reactionary feeling
| set in, assisted by comparatively full offerings
| from New Orleans, and at the close the tone
was tame with rates in some instances a frac-
| ton easier than Saturday evening. Spots are in
| good demand and higher"
